I definitely agree with you. Sports does not just improves your physique but also it is very important for our social skills. This is what I like with Waldorf education. The interaction and development of the children, the parts and of course the teachers is given high priority.

On Tumblr, lately there has been a mass feminist outroar against dress codes of any sort, it seems, because they are deemed "slut-shaming".
Mind you, I'm a feminist, and consider myself a pretty radical one at that, but I think this is bullshit.
School is a professional setting. You have to dress like you take it seriously. This means you can't have your boobs hanging out and your ass showing through your skirt, in my opinion. Same goes for guys- no boxers showing, no crude messages on t-shirts, etc.

I hate the idea of uniforms, though. I went to Catholic school in the US for 12 years. The uniforms just made everyone feel insecure because they could no longer dress in ways that flattered their bodies. Fat girls looked fatter, flat girls looked flatter, and the skorts were uncomfortable as fuck. I also disagree with uniforms because I do think that clothing is a form of self-expression which is important. I was bullied for my looks in high school. Uniforms didn't prevent that. Other people were bullied for being poor because of what cars they drove to school, what purses they stashed into their lockers, etc. Uniforms didn't stop class-based bullying. I'm REALLY anti-uniform.

But to allow students to go to elementary-high school looking like they just came from a strip club or prison, is crossing the line.


What do you guys think
